Pre-Calculus

Course Description

In Precalculus, students will build on the knowledge and skills from Algebra 2 and Geometry. Precalculus is the preparation for calculus. The course approaches topics from a function point of view, where appropriate, and is designed to strengthen and enhance conceptual understanding and mathematical reasoning used when modeling and solving mathematical and real-world problems. Students systematically work with functions and their multiple representations. The study of Precalculus deepens students' mathematical understanding and fluency with algebra and geometry and extends their ability to make connections and apply concepts and procedures at higher levels. Students will use calculators and/or computers to analyze mathematical and statistical relationships.
